TLDR: accessories offset the cost difference, better battery life, and FOV boost lens compatibility. Built in storage for "oh crap" moments.
I purchased both this and the Costco deal about one month ago : the osmo4 was returned. The extra batteries and charger are roughly the cost difference. The battery life on the osmo5 is also much improved. It isn't just the larger capacity: If you buy larger capacity batteries and use the in the osmo4, you still won't get better battery life in the osmo4. I'm moving from the gopro+maxLens camp and to even come close to the maxLens FOV you must have the osmo5 in order to use the FOV boost lens. Finally: while I've yet to use it, having built in storage for emergencies is a small bonus.
I've had every GoPro since the hero 6. The 12 was my last model. I made the switch to the DJI osmo5 pro. Hands down, much better in the cold. Last year, I was snowboarding in vail and my go pro with the new enduro battery would shut off after a few minutes of use, due to the cold. This year, my osmo5 would last the whole day with 1 battery. I was recording at 4k 30 RS. That alone sold me on it.

I prefer the image of the 4 over the 5. The new camera has HDR that makes the image look artificial and you can't turn it off. You can see examples all over YouTube.

I don't like the color science in DJI action cameras. I much prefer gopro colors.

I've heard great things about refurbs direct from DJI, tempting…
